For any continuous random variable, the probability that the random variable takes on exactly a specific value isA)  1.00.B)  0.50.C)  any value between 0 to 1.D)  0.

Francy Blanc · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : D, Explanation :  For any continuous random variable, the probability that the random variable takes on exactly a specific value is 0. This is because the number of possible values that a continuous random variable can take is infinite, and the probability of any one specific value among an infinite number of possible values is essentially zero.
